Sweet Divorce

Chapter 224 I Want You to be My Man

“What do you want?”

Jacob started at Rita cautiously.

Rita smiled, “I want you to be my accomplice.”

What?

Accomplice?

Jacob twitched his mouth and glanced at Liam who was sitting on the couch with his papers.

He then got up from the ground, “What for? Do you want me to kill somebody or set fire on something?”

Rita then realized her inappropriate choice of words.

While Rita was searching how to put it in another way, Jacob thought that she was considering his suggestions seriously.

‘Geez! Is she really wanting to kill somebody? Well, it’s true that she just saved my life, but why is she trying to screw me up again?’

Noticing that Jacob’s face was looking strange, Rita realized that he must have misunderstood something.

She hurriedly explained, “Rest assured. I won’t kill somebody nor commit arson.”

“What is it then?”

“I want you to be my guy.”

Jacob was taken aback by her words.

Her... Her guy?

Was he supposed to devote his life to her just because she saved his life?

Jacob’s face turned pale and immediately fell on his knees.

Rita was quite confused, “What are you doing?”

“Well, go ahead. Cane my one hundred times. I can’t really meet your demands. Liam would definitely kill me should he knows this. I’m begging you. I can do everything else for you apart from this.”

Hearing Jacob’s aggrieved begging, Rita knew that he had mistaken her once again.

She then pinched her eyebrows upsettingly, “Could you please stop thinking foolishly! When did I tell you that you have to devote your life to me?”

“But... But you said I have to be your guy.”

“What I meant was that you can be my ally and stand on my side when it comes to the Wilsons. Do you understand me?”

Jacob then took a sigh of relief and was pretty awkward.

Blushed, Jacob stood up again, “So you know that the Wilsons is going to decide who will be the Mrs. Wilson again?”

“Yes.” Rita nodded honestly.

“So you are trying to win me over?”

“Right.”

“Are you counting on me to bet my life on you just because you saved me?” She must be joking.

There was no way she can compete with Emma in terms of capability, skills or family background.

Why would he be stupid enough to choose her then?

He was destined to lose if he chose her.

Rita glanced at Jacob and knew exactly what he was thinking about.

She then said slowly, “Well, Liam loves me and just wants me. If he wants to marry me, do you think that the Wilsons can stop him?”

“Not really.”

“They definitely can’t!”

“Truth...”

Seeing that Jacob didn’t deny her words, Rita further persuaded, “So what’s the use of Emma getting all those favors if Liam doesn’t even like her? There is still no chance of winning for her. I definitely would be irritated if you don’t choose me. Do you think you can lead an easy life afterwards with my vengeful nature?”

Looking at Rita, Jacob knew she was absolutely right.

With Liam dozing on her that much right now, it would be extremely easy if she wanted to torture him.

“Don’t worry about it, Rita. I’m definitely on your side.”

Seeing that Jacob just changed his side this quick, Rita can’t help laughing.

But soon, she forced back her smiles and looked serious, “I won’t hide this from you since we are on the same boat now. I really want something from you. You spent the longest time with Liam normally, so I want you to text me right away if Emma meets Liam, especially when they are going to meet in private.”

She remembered that Emma threw herself at Liam multiple times in the previous lifetime.

She even drugged Liam once and hoped that she can sleep with him.

That was exactly why she fought with her and was almost killed by her.

She had changed a lot of things in this lifetime, so she was not sure whether this accident will happen earlier like what happened to the Browns.

Either way, it was better to be prepared.

Though Liam was pretty strong, there was no telling whether he can fight back the effect of drugs.

She definitely won’t let Emma have the chance of approaching Liam like what she did in the previous lifetime.

Jacob’s face immediately changed when he heard Rita’s words.

“Well...”

Was she letting him give away Liam’s whereabouts? This was a capital crime in the Wilsons.

“Don’t worry. If he finds about this one day and wants to kill you, I will just say you are nothing to do with this since I forced you into this. But of course, if you help me this time, I definitely won’t mistreat you one day. I will still beg for your life if something like today’s happens once again.”

Rita had already figured out what Jacob was thinking, so she added these words.

Jacob won’t have any worries this way.

Glancing at the Liam who was sitting on the couch, Jacob nodded and agreed.

“All right then.”

“Well, I’m sure we’ll have a great cooperation.”

Rita beamed and shook hands with Jacob which signified the beginning of their cooperation which Liam happened to see clearly.

Since when they were on such good terms?

When it was at night, Liam called Jacob to his study.

“Did you bury the hatchet with her?”

Though Liam wasn’t pointing any names, Jacob knew exactly when he was referring to.

“Not exactly.”

“What?”

“Well, I’m sort of on her side now.”

Liam frowned, “What do you mean?”

“She said that I have to text her every time you meet Emma.”

“What else?”

“That’s all.”

That’s all...

Liam drooped his eyes and started wondering.

After thinking for a few seconds, he started smiling.

“You find it hilarious too, right? I really don’t know what she is thinking about. Am I really that easy to be bought off?”

Jacob shrugged and immediately pledged his allegiance.

But the man sitting on the couch just murmured, “She is jealous, isn’t she?”

“What?”

“She finally had this sense of crisis.” Liam deepened his smile.

Jacob was gravitated by his stunning smile.

It was lucky that he was certain of his sexual orientation, or he really could be attracted easily by this mesmerizing Liam.

“What are you saying, Liam. I don’t understand.”

Jacob blinked his eyes confusedly. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Liam looked up, “Emma reports to me the overseas situation once a month, right?”

“Right.”

“Change it to once a week.”

It was a great thing if Rita can be jealous more.

Not only was it beneficial to his body and their relationship, but they maybe can get a baby.

Jacob was really in bewilderment and didn’t know what Liam was thinking about.
